dpd project [VERSION 2!] [Full List of Discs] [FAQ] [Find A Song or Band] [Message Board]      

Welcome to DPD!


The DPD Project is a thematic mix-CD project created by music geeks and best friends Chris Diamond, Chris Prokop, and Michael Darpino.

Each CD in the project has a theme that ties the songs on it together. For every theme we each pick five songs that we feel best represent it. The collected fifteen songs are then mixed together in alternating order based on our last names. The songs that end up on DPD are meant to be the very best songs for their particular theme.

We write liner notes for each song to explain why we picked it for that theme. The project has grown into a sort of musical memoir over the years since music has been and still is such a huge part of our lives.

Random DPD Pick:


Bela Lugosi's Dead
by: Bauhaus
from: Bauhaus '79-'83 Volume 1

Picked By: darpino
For: DPD: 015 - Songs about Famous People

When I was young I was anti-goth. Goth music would come on at Industrial/Goth clubs and all the Crow wannabe's would dance like spinning tops or tattered flags in the wind. Meanwhile, I'd be slurping down vodka tonics waiting for the next industrial song to come on for me to kick ass too.

Then one day I heard this live version and Bauhaus didn't seem so lame to me anymore. In fact, a lot of Gothic music grew on me. Still does to this day (Thank you Mr. Diamond).

Anyway, I think this Goth song rocks and if you've got something to say about it you'll have a big Industrial guy to answer to.

Oh yeah, I think it's about Bela Lugosi or somebody. Whoever that was.
